What could have been a successful tourist attraction for Kent, in the UK, was accidentally demolished by construction workers who had no idea the building featured a priceless Banksy painting.
When construction workers demolished a building in Kent, they had no idea they were destroying what could have been a multi-million-dollar piece of art, and a successful tourist attraction.
The mural by the world-famous anonymous artist Banksy was titled Morning is Broken and was painted onto a 500-year-old farmhouse on Blacksole Farm in Herne Bay.
Painted onto one of the barn’s boarded-up windows, the artwork showed a person and a car pushing back curtains that appear to be made of black corrugated irons.
On March 15, Banksy confirmed it was one of his iconic works via Instagram.
